Hello,
I did a support request:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ticket/3249
And by this way I came to this bug report.
The fix as here suggest, doesn't work for me, details see at the support
request as
described above.
I think I found a other solution but I'm not really sure. Below a description
what I
did:
The python script
/usr/share/popularity-contest/popcon-upload-ubuntu
want to read from stdin, but the shell script
/etc/cron.weekly/popularity-contest
gives the python script the parameter -u and -f. This parameter I have ignored,
because
the server and filename are hard coded:
ret= post_multipart('popcon.ubuntu.com', '/popcon-submit.cgi', '' ,
data)
This should be changed. If I learn enough about python, perhaps I do so.
~:)
I did following changes:
#if setsid /usr/share/popularity-contest/popcon-upload-ubuntu \
# -u $URL -f $POPCON 2>/dev/null ; then
if setsid /usr/share/popularity-contest/popcon-upload-ubuntu \
< $POPCON 2>/dev/null ; then
Now the python script reads from stdin, so how it expected. The script runs
with out any
errors. I don't know whether the data comes correctly at the Ubuntu server or
not. Is
there a way to check this?
Thanks in advance,
Mr Canis
